Their products are on the pricey side but smell very nice. I like that they have hand washing stations so you can try some of the products before you commit to a purchase. Customer service was pretty much nonexistent. We were not greeted as we walked into the store. No one ever came up to us to ask if we had any questions or needed assistance. When we did go up to them, they were very short with us and seemed like they didn't want to help. read more

Amazing customer service! Came in for a Mother's Day gift and I knew exactly what she wanted - I told them what scents she liked and the staff prepared everything for me so fast. You can ask for your items gift wrapped and they sprayed the box all over in a scent she would like + added skin care samples for her. I was even offered hot herbal tea as a I walked it - very lovely touch. read more

Bad customer service . The products here are great but these employees need to be scolded and trained by some classy professionals who know about customer service . They yell at customers for touching the products , smelling the products . They get angry when you try to look at a product that's not a tester. Like relax guys chill you're working in a body soap and cream products store . Being nice should be part of your personality but all these employees always act like jerks . Next time in will let them know read more

It was my first time at Aēsop and I will definitely be back! Esteban helped me out and he was very helpful and kind. I came in to buy a gift, but he also introduced me to some of the most popular fragrances and hand creams. I was surprised the scent lasted on all day. And now I can't stop thinking about it and want to buy some for myself. He also let me try all the products in the gift set before my purchase. I had an amazing experience visiting Aesop. I will definitely be back to try more of their products. read more

Nick was amazing, sweet and professional. He let try many of fragrances and gave us a tour. Had an amazing experience. If you love essential oil fragrances, this is your place to go! read more

This was my first time coming into a Aesop shop. I'll definitely come back! Thank you Zyren for your kindness and professionalism. Ask for Zyren if you plan to stop by. I told him the notes I prefer in fragrance and he knew just what to show me. Loved it! read more

Aesop Pasadena - Rejuvenate Intensive Body Balm - Cosmetics & Beauty Supply Near Me - Pasadena, California

Very nice service and very attentive. Showed me different products that compliment interests. I recommend this location.

Back in 2021, I was surprised there was an Aēsop in Pasadena. Three years later, I'm surprised that it's the second biggest-selling store in the United States (after only the Century City store). Who knew Pasadena loved Aēsop so much? On a recent Friday night, the store was bustling, the sinks were busy, and customers inquiring about products. As is usual for Aēsop stores, the staff is friendly and knows the line well. Design-wise, this is still one of the brand's more functional boutiques, but that seems to be fine -- the function is to sell product, and Aēsop Pasadena is doing that quite well. I'm glad to see this outpost has not just survived but thrived. read more

Customer service was excellent, France was super helpful and knowledgeable. I was able to communicate what I liked and disliked about products I've bought prior and he made new recommendations. Very personable staff too, doesn't feel like they're just concerned with selling you product. read more

I wish I could make this my home, as it is so comforting and relaxing to the senses just being there. The sales staff are also very enlightening and soothing to speak with, as their products are remarkable and engineered for the senses. Just the memory of being in their store is remembered, as the scents remind me of this experience. I found the product I was looking for to relax and calm my nerves with a roll on ginger flight therapy that comes in a travel size vial. I did not try any of their shampoos, although might like to on my next adventure, using the sinks provided, as the aroma of their products are quite enticing. read more

Esteban and the crew working this afternoon were absolutely incredible. From the moment we walked in, they took the time to understand our needs, gave us some free samples that were tailored to us, and shared what's new in store without being pushy at all. My friend was buying something and he / the team still took the time to give me tea and free samples, even though I wasn't a paying customer. We left feeling kinda like we had just been to a spa! Thank you, Esteban & team! You've made a lifeline Aesop customer out of me :) read more

I've known about Aesop for years...the Australian beauty brand was founded in 1987. Recently, it's become more popular than ever. Maybe the pandemic made people want to splurge on soaps and self care. Anyway, they've been opening lots of stores in the LA area, including the new one in Old Town Pasadena. I really liked their hand soap and lotions I've come across at hotels and other businesses. The new store has a serene spa like feel with a wall of bottles (their products), discreetly packaged in amber bottles and jars and testers on the other side, along with a sink where you can wash your hands. The colors are muted and their scents are natural and herbaceous. I like that the packaging and the aesthetic are understated and gender-neutral. They have moisturizers, soaps, scrubs, candles ($110 each & already sold out), toothpaste, room spray, hair care, perfume, deodorant, etc. The lack of large signs makes it somewhat hard to shop there without some guidance. Also, they didn't have prices on anything. If you're curious and don't want to keep asking, check out their website. They even offer complimentary shipping. The products are expensive, more so than Kiehl's and Malin+Goetz. Aesop's packaging is definitely nicer (people even sell the empty bottles on eBay). They obviously care about design. And they're a certified B corporation. The products are vegan. They give you a cloth bag that you can reuse and free samples too. The service was very friendly and helpful. The associates have a passion for the products. The store smells really nice and I love being able to wash my hands with quality liquid soap. They don't have sales except for 1 day a year! My picks: * Geranium leaf body balm, $33 for a smaller tube * Clous room spray, $55 - nice amber glass bottle read more

This review is 100% for the associates working on Saturday June 5. I remember Nathaniel, Adrian, and another female associate-- to whom I am so sorry that I did not catch her name. My mom and I were looking for 25 favors for a travel themed bridal shower. We came into the store with an idea but once we explained theme, the associates 100% embraced it and made the experience so fun. They suggested lip balms, Blue Chamomile hydrating mist, and Ginger flight therapy rollers. Ultimately we went with lip balm, travel sized hand sanitizer (so relevant to today's travel climate right?), and they threw in a sample face masque. The cherry on top were these gorgeous paper bags with addresses in Paris that were perfect for the overall packaging. The store itself is clean and they do a great job with limiting the customer count inside. I normally purchase my Aēsop products through department stores, but I will be sure to be back here for the service! read more

Outstanding customer service and product knowledge given by Esteban today. I plan on returning very soon to decide on fragrance, too hard on the first visit! The product line is comprehensive but not totally overwhelming and I'm excited to integrate the facial tonic into my regime. Thank you Esteban! read more

Great service & a plentiful, well-stocked and varied collection of skincare. A big bonus in my book was added when my brother and I were served peppermint tea upon checking out. A perfectly warm peppermint tea, might I add. read more

Nick and the team today 11/13/2024 were so kind and welcoming! my group and i initially came in to browse however ended up purchasing a few hand creams after a lovely conversation with Nick! a genuinely beautiful experience, thank you! read more

Great customer service. Carolyn was so helpful and nice. She gave great recommendations on products. The location is clean, friendly and welcoming. read more

If you're looking for great apothecary look no further than Aesop! This location has only been open a few months but they are easily one of the best Aesop locations! The service at all Aesop locations is usually amazing but this location really takes it up a notch! Art was great at following up and letting me know when they received a product I had been waiting for! Love the customized service! They are also always so generous with their samples so you can smell and try all their products in store! Some of my favorite products are their hand lotions. With all the hand washing we've been doing lately it's nice to find a luxurious hand lotion that keeps your hands hydrated! I love that they use essential oils for their products and that they are free of chemicals. I really enjoy the look of their minimalist packaging although I do prefer glass over the recycled plastic. Overall this brand is one of my favorites! If you're in Old Town definitely check this store out. read more

Came by for a quick refill and Ryan and the other girl working were super friendly and helpful! Made my experience super quick, easy, and cute :~) read more

Holy man. Best customer service ever. Yes it's pricey but we love their products and love it more when the staff is so friendly and genuinely kind. read more

My boyfriend and I love Aesop, and went to the store today to get a travel kit. Brian helped us out today, and he was so amazingly kind and knowledgeable of the products. The customer service here really stood out to us, and we really love the products in here. I also bought myself some hand soap and the smell was amazing. Brian allowed us to wash our hands and try both soaps, and had information for both so that I can choose the one that worked best for me. We really loved our experience today, and will definitely be back to continue to try more products. read more

Love the staff here! They're so friendly and attentive. The resurrection hand soap was recently sold out, so the staff texted me when it came back in stock. Nice experience to try out products in store also! read more

Brian just took care of us and he was a sweet flower on top of a sugary hill of chocolate and feathers. Really enjoyed him. He can sell us anything!!! Thank you so much! read more

You can't smell any of the testers because of Covid but I can touch them. If they sell scented body wash, what's the point of not letting customers smell them, especially if my gf and I were the only people in the store. They told me I can only smell them outside the store. That's a Rude rule. read more

I love Aesop products but I do not recommend the specific store. I went inside the shop twice today to buy three dispensers of their Reverence hand wash. The first time I was waiting in line, another customer jumped in front of me, and the clerk didn't say anything. I continue to wait in line for a while, and the cashiers were very slow, and the purchase was taking longer than I expected, so I put the containers back and decided to come back later. I returned an hour later, went to the shelf, and picked up a box candle, because I've never seen the product. I went to open it and was scolded by an employee for trying to smell the candle. I left. I won't be returning to this store again. read more

Amazing customer service and positive attitude. Will come back to see Calvin soon. I will end up purchasing everything in the store soon because their line is amazing. read more

PHENOMENAL! The products, store, and most of all the associates are awesome. I was initially interested in the fragrance but honestly every product is amazing - just purchased the shampoo and conditioner and now wanting the entire skin care collection after the associates gave me a generous amount of samples. I LOVE IT read more
